The Ignatz Award for Outstanding Graphic Novel or Collection (1997–2004) was an annual literary award recognizing outstanding achievements in comics and cartooning by small press creators or creator-owned projects published by larger publishers. After 2004, the award was separated into two awards: the Ignatz Award for Outstanding Graphic Novel and Ignatz Award for Outstanding Anthology or Collection; the latter was split into the Ignatz Award for Outstanding Anthology and Ignatz Award for Outstanding Collection in 2017.
